Miss Me
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free.
Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the love we once shared
Miss Me, But Let Me Go.
For this is a journey that we all must take
And each must go alone
It's all a part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds
Miss Me, But Let Me Go.

This woman was loved by everybody who had the pleasure of meeting her, she always had an open door to anybody and everybody who needed a place to sleep or eat. She ran the Sumner buckaroo’s 4-H club for years, helped build the barn at our local fair grounds for all the 4-H kids. There were always kids and horses running around her house and yard.
She had so much to share and teach. I would call her on the phone she would share her stories of her younger years and always teach me something. when I hung up I was able to walk away with a new insight to things.
I love her as my second Mother and best friend
Yesterday about 11:00 in the morning a Wonderful Horse woman, friend, and Adopted Mom had an aneurysm
The machines were shut off at midnight to end her suffering to let her slip off to the wonderful place called Heaven, into God’s awaiting embrace. Please tonight say a prayer for her husband of 43 years He is so lost with out her as we all are
